Having reviewed the FBI’s supplemental background investigation, the White House said on Thursday it was “fully confident” that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh would be confirmed.
“With Leader McConnell’s cloture filing, Senators have been given ample time to review this seventh background investigation,” said Raj Shah, the principal deputy press secretary for the White House. “This is the last addition to the most comprehensive review of a Supreme Court nominee in history, which includes extensive hearings, multiple committee interviews, over 1,200 questions for the record and over a half million pages of documents. With this additional information, the White House is fully confident the Senate will vote to confirm Judge Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.”

According to The Wall Street Journal, the White House did not find any support in the report for the allegations of sexual misconduct lobbed against Kavanaugh.

What happened to the Rosenstein news conference? Also I hope that the White House is correct.
It ain’t over yet folks....
Kavanaugh’s fate hinges on three GOP senators: Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Jeff Flake.
Should Republicans lose any votes, Sens. Joe Manchin and Heidi Heitkamp will be looked to as his next best hope.
Otherwise, the main hope is to win MORE THAN enough votes this November to have a solid majority and for Trump to RE-NOMINATE Kavanaugh, using the midterm elections as a MANDATE for this act.
translation: Mitch has had a closed door meeting with the Abortion Twins and made them an offer they can’t refuse.
Was Christine Ford ever investigated by the FBI? If not why not? Does anyone know?
The idiot Flake pointlessly dragged out the vote a week because he’s a Drama Queen.

Forget the Flake, he’s a lost cause.

They didn’t even talk to her, not Kavanaugh this time.
Flake will still flake off
Actually, even though Flake might not have intended it (unless he and Trump are secretly working together, and the anti-Trump sentiments by Flake are just for show lol), it seems that this delay has helped Kavanaugh and actually hurt the Democrats.
Flake got what he wanted. If he votes “No,” he is a liar.

Because corrupt FBI people were helping her all along the way.

If they vote no next session their Senate offices will be moved to a converted Exxon station off a Maryland exit of the Beltway.
Murkowski enjoys the extra face time...doubt she will be the candidate the next time around.
Time to vote!
Schumer is on TV now wagging his finger about it. Fortunately I have it muted.
Just a thought here. Had the Democrats started this slimejob on Kavanaugh back in July they would have had almost three months to plant the seeds of doubt in the minds of so many of the wavering Repukes. Lindsey Graham would of caved instead of being a hero. Instead, the Dems went for the last minute hit, and ended up giving the GOP a resolve to fight for the judge plus it riled up and has united, for the most part, the entire Republican Party. I’m surprised all the high priced Democrat Party consultants and analysts didn’t see this happening, but then again these are the same geniuses who have no clue even today of what happened in November 8, 2016!
